    I'm sorry to read this and I'll be sure to pass these comments onto our parts department...

    Hi Rachel , I think blade sharpening is about a tenner a blade at GreenMech which I believe includes the return carriage cost..

    The spec for engine oil is from memory 15/40 mineral based. If you can't get mineral based then semi synthetic would be ok.. I've never heard of anyone fitting a water trap but it sounds a good idea.. It would be worthwhile fitting an inline fuel filter though..

    If you call 01789400044 then option for parts dept then speak to 'honest Pete'. He's old and will know these....

    Well we finally got to the bottom of this, it was the ‘crankshaft pulley damper’ that had failed ! I’ve had a few of these now on older Isuzu 4LE1 engines and they can be hard to diagnose, the usual giveaway being that the revs on the display fluctuate but the actual engine revs are constant.. much more difficult to find on an older chipper that may not have the revs displayed but ‘No-Stress’ lights instead.. Another symptom of this failure is engine overheating.! With a failed damper , if you try to turn the engine over on the cooling fan the crankshaft pulley outer section will actually freewheel on the innermost section of the pulley. And a new pulley is not cheap.... Jase.

    A CS100 locks onto it's own trailer..

    May issue..?
  9. Jase hutch
    No problem, give me a call on Friday and yes it's a landline..
  10. Jase hutch
    I didn’t hear anything ?
  11. Jase hutch
    In the mean time if you need to use the chipper, if you simply remove the plug on the solenoid valve by undoing the single screw , the feed rollers should work. You will need to control the feed rollers on the red bar though if chipping capacity timber or you will stall the engine.

    If you can give me a ring tomorrow morning on : 01789400044 and I can talk you through re programming the box and hopefully that'll sort it..
  13. Jase hutch
    Are the revs on the display fairly constant or fluctuating a lot ? Does your chipper have the 'EHB' box fitted with the idle, set and run buttons or the later 'RDS' unit ?

    01789 400044....That’s for GreenMech but you really need to go via your local dealer Shaun..
  15. Jase hutch
    Shaun, £29.27 to you .......
  16. Jase hutch
    Only just picked this up Shaun , can let you know first thing Monday.. ..?
  17. Jase hutch
    Ok Shaun, this is for free.. Take off the yellow wire from the starter motor solenoid and check for 12volts between this wire and earth when you turn the ignition key to the start position. If you have this voltage, peel back the rubber boots from the two large connectors on the red leads on the solenoid and carefully bridge these together with a short length of electrical wire. If it now cranks then the solenoid us faulty...if it still won't crank then the starter motor is faulty. I think we have had solenoid failures in the past.. I hope this helps.... Jase.

    What make of chipper ?
  19. Jase hutch

    Personally I would say that needs a new blade pocket welding in..... £15 approx for a new pocket. It needs to be put in a jig to get it right and would need re balancing ....
  21. Jase hutch
    In that case I'd take a guess at 8mm (5/16").....

    The early fuel tap was buried under the fuel tank with a steel wire extension piece for operation. The later type was mounted externally and easily visible. I wouldn't worry, if it's been running ok and the engine oil level hasn't been rising then it'll be fine...
  23. Jase hutch
    It seems to be more of an issue if the chipper is moved in transit and the tap is left turned on, fuel can get past the needle valve in the carb and ends up in the engines sump. I know the design of the fuel tap leaves a lot to be desired, the later ones are better now.

    You won’t be the last.............?
